State of the Christian

 "The happiest state of a Christian is the holiest state. 

 

As there is the most heat nearest to the sun, 

so there is the most happiness nearest to Christ. 

 

No Christian is safe when his soul is slothful, and his God is far from him."

Charles Spurgeon

O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face . . . because we have sinned against Thee.—Daniel 9:8
